20 Radiation Test Results Preliminary (Amplifier unpumped during dose accumulation) Measure self-heterodyne signal (in-band power) and total output power as function of cumulative radiation dose Initial test shows 3dB in-band signal degradation at 10 krad dose and accelerated degradation at dosage beyond 10 krad Initial test set-up susceptible to optical misalignment between data points Re-running test with improved set-up to corroborate initial results and to test with amplifier operational during radiation dosage accumulation 20
21 Summary >5W output power with <1MHz absolute frequency lock knowledge demonstrated in lab #1 risk identified for 2 micron CW approach to ASCENDS Power scaling also enables finer spatial resolution airborne measurements (more rapid speckle integration) Radiation testing of fiber amplifier key components using 60 Co gamma source Preliminary results (non-operational during dose accumulation) indicate current fiber susceptible at cumulative doses lower than 10 krad Setting up to perform equivalent test with operational fiber amplifier Future test plans Evaluate fiber changes for improved radiation tolerance Identify and radiation-test other key fiber components for space-based sensor compatibility 21
